1. A high elasticity composition suitable for intra-articular injection comprising hyaluronan, wherein:
the hyaluronan is present in said composition at a concentration of greater than 30 mg/mL; the hyaluronan has an average molecular weight of between 1.3 and 2 million; the hyaluronan is not cross-linked and/or is substantially free of chemical modifications; wherein the composition is substantially free of a pharmaceutically active substance selected from the group consisting of a protein, a glycosaminoglycan that is different from hyaluronan, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose and a local anesthetic; wherein the composition is sterile; and wherein the composition has an elasticity (G′) of at least 900 Pascal when measured at a frequency of 5.0 Hz. |
